Hey guys, I hope you can give me some ideas of what to put together for a Server just for Data backup for Accounting, Development Designs, and so forth. It will be connected to our domain in the company, and used for data storage and backup with a Raid 1 or 5 .
I just want to figure out if it worth going to the Xeons, or simply have a Quad or C2D (Q9400 or e8xxx) , 4 or 8GB RAM, what mobo, and what other "useful" hardware for it (better network cards, RAID PCI Card, anything)
Your Thoughts?
*edit* It wont be on Windows Server OS, we will have XP due to all our systems here are on 2000 / XP *shrug* or if Vista is a good way to go, possible will be looking into that
